## What it is
Soulmate is a Ruby tool that provides fast autocomplete/typeahead suggestions using Redis sorted sets, exposed via a Sinatra web app and CLI for loading items. It is no longer maintained; users should use its successor Soulheart instead.

## Use cases
- add autocomplete to a search box
- fast typeahead suggestions for performers venues and events
- rank autocomplete results by score
- serve autocomplete suggestions from redis
- autocomplete with multiple item types in one query

## When to choose
- you are already invested in the Ruby/Redis stack and need a simple self-hosted autocomplete service
- you need score-ranked suggestions with arbitrary metadata per item

## When to avoid
- starting a new project - the project is unmaintained and its successor Soulheart is recommended
- you need active support, security fixes, or modern deployment options

## Facets
- artifact type: service
- maturity: abandoned
- function: search-engine, http-server, caching
- domain: web-development, databases
- platform: ruby, self-hosted
- tags: autocomplete, typeahead, redis-sorted-sets, sinatra, unmaintained, soulheart-successor, search, redis, web-server
